How to snell a hook. The snell is a great way to attach a hook to a leader when fishing live bait. This is the best way to snell without loosing a lot of leader material.
New Tag Recovery! A fish we tagged last month in the Housatonic River has been recovered in the Thames River. This is interesting as it seems like clock work when the fish drop out of the Housy they begin to show up in Eastern CT Rivers but this is also when fish are being caught in the northern states. Last spring we had several recaptured as they traveled North in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
New Video on How To Snell a Hook! I always snell my hooks when bait fishing. This is the best and easiest way to snell a hook and allows for a very clean presentation and proper hook orientation.
When fishing artificials I use a snap 95 percent of the time. @spro.usa prime snaps are great for changing lures quickly and do not take away for the lure’s action.
Watch this tip on tying the Uni Knot to attach terminal gear such as hooks and swivels. I prefer this knot over others because it lays straight and when tied properly will not “burn” the leader. Checkout this important tip on cinching the knot down to avoid the burn.
Good tip, thank you for sharing. I am guilty of being the guy who pulls to soon and burns the line.

In my opinion striped bass in the spring are the most difficult as they are still lethargic, heavily pressured and not nearly as aggressive as they will be later in the season when they turn into a different animal. What I enjoy about the spring bite is the light tackle and feeling the light hit on a soft plastic. The bite can be so light it often goes undetected by anglers.
Tip for installing @humminbirdfishing Mega Side/Down Imaging transducer. Run the cable in 3/8 inch conduit to prevent any possible electrical interference and keep your image perfect.
How to rig unweighted soft plastic jerk baits. One of the most effective lures for striped bass and many other species. You can’t beat the action of a 7 and 9 inch @lunkercityfishing Slug-Go but it needs to be rigged properly. In this video I demonstrate how to rig these baits on a swim bait hook.
Hey, that's my 10 year-old, Sean! Man did he have fun with Mike! Outdoors with red cheeks, catching fish, learning about the electronics, and no screen time. After coming home, he ate like a pig and slept like a rock! Can't wait to see you again in June on the CT River, and hopefully also in the fall for tog.
Stop by the @ctspringboatshow today at Essex Island Marina. I’ll will be doing a seminar on fishing the CT River and Long Island Sound at 12:30. @sunrisekayakfishing will be talking about kayak striper fishing at 2:00pm and @bmosk12 will be speaking about proactive offshore fishing at 3:00pm.
A striped bass that we tagged off Old Lyme, CT on 11/13/21 was recaptured in the mouth of the CT River on 4/26/22. Do you think this fish spent the river in the CT River system?
How to tie a leader to braided line. Checkout this video on how to tie the uni to uni knot quick and consistent. In my opinion this is the best knot to attach a monofilament or fluorocarbon leader to braided line because you can easily tie it in the dark, rain, or rough seas. I go over two ways to tie this knot. When using a thin braid I recommend doubling the braid to prevent the braid from cutting through the leader.
